About
Minecraft is Mojang Studios' sandbox game, first released in alpha in 2009 and formally released for PC in November 2011. This is a simple Minecraft clone that runs in the browser, built with Three.js as a teaching project, with a companion YouTube tutorial series. It features procedural world generation, biomes, coal and iron resources, terrain chunking, terraforming, and save/load.
How it differs from the original
Inventory management, crafting, item drops, NPCs and additional block types are listed as not yet implemented.
Getting started
It can be played directly in the browser through the live demo on the project's GitHub Pages site.
Additional notes
- Project goal
- The stated aim is to show how to build a browser Minecraft clone without advanced graphics techniques or custom shader code.
